sin()

Description

Calculates the sine of an angle (in radians). The result will be between -1 and 1.

Syntax

sin(rad)

Parameter Values

  • rad: The angle in radians. Allowed data types: float.

Return Values

  • The sine of the angle. Data type: double.

Example Code

void setup() { Serial.begin(9600); for (int angle = 0; angle <= 180; angle += 15) { float angle_rad = angle * M_PI / 180; float sin_result = sin(angle_rad); Serial.print("sin("); Serial.print(angle); Serial.print("°) = "); Serial.println(sin_result); } } void loop() { }

The result in Serial Monitor:
